You were made to take the blame and go to jail, but you weren't made a master of both medicine

Chu Wan'er also voiced her thoughts: "Is Grandpa worried that you and your maternal grandfather's family will join forces to seize the Chu family's assets?"

"You're right, that's exactly what they think."

"My God, how could they have such thoughts? I really don't understand." Chu Wan'er was very puzzled.

Sun Qing sneered, "As a scion of a wealthy family, don't you understand what these people are thinking? I won't say more, but remember what I just said: in this family, don't easily trust anyone except me."

"understood."

After chatting for a while, Chu Wan'er left.

At this moment, he and she kept replaying what Sun Qing had just said in their minds.

……

In the afternoon, Qin Ran drove to the Blood Saber Sect.

If it weren't for Ren Tiansha and the nine elders helping to hold back Nangong Ze last night...

He's really hard to beat.

Now that the matter is resolved, Qin Ran should come and say thank you.

Ren Tiansha rushed out to greet Qin Ran upon learning of his arrival: "Sect Leader, you've arrived!"

"I had nothing to do this afternoon, so I came over for a stroll."

"Let's talk in the lobby."

"it is good."

Upon arriving in the hall, Ren Tiansha asked Qin Ran to sit in the seat of honor.

He hurriedly ordered his servants to make tea.

The two chatted while drinking tea.

"Sect Master, last night's events caused quite a stir. I don't understand why you and Nangong Ze have a grudge?"

Qin Ran laughed and said, "Actually, it's not a big deal. Nangong Ze was filming a movie before, and the female lead of the movie is a friend of mine. I went to the set to find her, and ended up having some conflicts with Nangong Ze."

"One phone call from me cost him the lead role. He held a grudge against me afterward and sent gangsters to retaliate against me. But they were no match for me and I beat them up. They also paid me 2 billion in compensation for emotional distress."

"Actually, the matter should have ended there, but he was too clever for his own good and tried to use the power of the media to retaliate against me. So I released the video of him sending gangsters to kidnap me, and then he was completely finished."

After Qin Ran finished speaking, he took a sip of tea.

Thinking about what has happened these past two days, it is indeed quite dramatic.

It really feels like a play.

This drama is much more exciting than the idol drama that Namgoong Ze starred in before.

Ren Tiansha frowned and nodded: "Why did Nangong Ze become like that last night? Where did his cultivation come from?"

"That's a good question. This is the key point. People often say that when you think you've reached the end of the road, you'll find a new path opening up. This saying can also be applied to Nangong Ze."

"After I released the video, he was completely ruined. As an artist, revealing a triad background is bound to get him blacklisted."

"Just when he was at his wit's end, a demon found him and bestowed upon him evil power, and then he came to seek revenge on me."

"To put it simply, the demonic path used him to kill me," Qin Ran said casually.

Upon hearing this, Ren Tiansha became somewhat unsettled.

Qin Ran also has a grudge against the demonic path.

This is not a joke.

He knew in his heart that the Demonic Path was not a particular force or a particular gang.

They are a large group.

These people are also known as demonic cultivators.

As for their architecture, it is quite intricate and complex.

Nobody knows who the real boss behind these demonic cultivators is!

Whose orders are they carrying out?

Or rather, who exactly are they under orders from?

No one outside knows about these things.

Ren Tiansha looked at Qin Ran: "Sect Master, being targeted by the Demonic Path will be very troublesome. There are simply too many people to kill."

Qin Ran sighed: "I know, but I have an irreconcilable hatred for the demonic path, so I must fight back with all my might. I have found out that the organization responsible for hunting me down is called the Yama Palace, and there must be someone above the Yama Palace."

"The Demonic Path is like a towering tree with lush branches and leaves; all the branches and leaves I see are merely appearances."

"The key is the tree's roots hidden underground. To completely eradicate them, we must uproot the tree."

Ren Tiansha nodded repeatedly: "Your analogy is so apt. Perhaps what we are seeing now is not the trunk and leaves of this big tree, but merely the parasites on the tree."

Qin Ran smiled at Ren Tiansha: "Your analogy is even more apt than mine, and your summary is spot on. Never mind anything else, my current goal is the Yama Palace, and then I will search upwards from there, layer by layer."

"I've never heard of the Yama Palace before. What kind of organization is it?" Ren Tiansha asked.

Qin Ran paused for a moment: "I don't know much about it either. My master mentioned it once before. The Yama Palace is a lackey of the demonic path, to put it bluntly, it's a lackey."

"If you ever need anything in the future, just let us know, and the Blood Blade Sect will do everything in our power to help you."

"Then I'll thank you in advance. I came here today to thank you. If it weren't for your help last night, I would have had a hard time killing Nangong Ze."

Ren Tiansha quickly said, "You're being too polite. You're the sect leader, we're family, it's only right that I help you."

"Okay, let's not talk about that anymore. We've finished our tea. Show me around."

"This way, please."

Afterwards, Qin Ran and Ren Tiansha left the hall together.

Seeing that it was getting late, Ren Tiansha hurriedly ordered his servants to prepare dinner.

In the evening, Qin Ran had dinner with Ren Tiansha and the nine elders.

He went back after finishing his meal.

After arriving home, Qin Ran sat on the sofa.

Since his release from prison, he has gradually felt increasing pressure.

More and more things are on my mind.

At the same time, Su Qingyi came downstairs: "Junior Brother, you're back."

"I'm back. Tonight I'll have dinner with the elders of the Blood Blade Sect."

"We really should thank them. Thanks to their help last night," Su Qingyi said.

"That's what I think too."

"By the way, I have a question for you. Who was that girl who was with us last night?"

Qin Ran's expression was somewhat strange.

He knew that the girl Su Qingyi was talking about must be Chu Qingcheng.

This woman looks like she's going to ask a lot of questions again.

"Her name is Chu Qingcheng, and she's my good friend."

"I think she cares about you a lot. Last night when she saw you were injured, her whole expression changed, as if she herself was injured. Are you two really just friends?" Su Qingyi looked at Qin Ran with suspicion.

Qin Ran said in a serious tone, "So far, we are just ordinary friends. Chu Qingcheng is the illegitimate daughter of the Chu family. She is not well received in the Chu family. I have helped her many times, so in her eyes, I am her benefactor."

Su Qingyi nodded repeatedly: "I see."

Just then, Qin Ran's phone rang; it was Chu Qingcheng.

"Hello!"

"Qin Ran, tomorrow is the weekend, could you come with me to another city? The Chu family recently took on a project and they want me to go and investigate it."

"Where is it?" Qin Ran asked.

Chu Qingcheng replied, "It's Hunter Tower Village in Pengcheng."

"No problem, we'll get in touch tomorrow."

"OK."

After exchanging a few words, Qin Ran hung up the phone.

Su Qingyi asked, "Who is it?"

"Chu Qingcheng asked me to go with her to inspect a project tomorrow."

"I'll go with you."

Qin Ran touched her nose: "You're going too?"

"Yeah, can't I go?"

"That's not what I meant. You're going to take up your new post at the Black Emperor Consortium on Monday. Have you looked at the documents Gu Xinrou gave you?"

"We can see when we get back, there's no rush," Su Qingyi said, pouting.

"Alright, I'll ask Chu Qing if it's convenient. If it is, I'll invite Gu Xinrou along too."

Su Qingyi said she had no objection.

Qin Ran then called Chu Qingcheng back.

She said it was convenient, and everyone could go together, treating it as a trip.

Qin Ran deliberately invited Gu Xinrou along.

Otherwise, with only Chu Qingcheng and Su Qingyi present, the situation would be somewhat dangerous.
